How to Drain Enemy Energy with Cursed Buds

Against tough opponents in the Cursed Fate combat system, dealing direct health damage is not always enough. Cursed buds let you weaken targets by steadily sapping their power during drawn-out fights.

Applying Cursed Buds in Combat

1. Equip the cursed buds skill into one of your active slots inside the custom plant ability interface.

2. Aim directly at your target and fire the cursed buds from mid-range.

3. Once a bud hits, it sticks to the enemy and automatically drains their power over time while you focus on dodging or setting up heavy wooden ball attacks for high direct damage.

Doubling the Drain Against Defensive Moves

You can punish passive or turtling enemies by watching their combat stance closely:

1.

2. Pressure them with heavy wooden balls or sharp roots to force a guard or defensive skill.

3. Shoot and land your cursed buds while their defensive move is active. Hitting a defending target drains their energy twice as fast, quickly leaving them unable to fight back.
